Resident Evil Requiem Criticized for 'Immersion-Breaking' Gore Censorship in Japan - IGN
Players of the Japanese version of Resident Evil Requiem are criticizing Capcom's censorship of gore, finding it immersion-breaking and less creative than in previous titles. The game's director, Koshi Nakanishi, had suggested the Japanese version would be comparable to the global release, but players report noticeable blacked-out areas that detract from the experience. This censorship is due to Japan's CERO game ratings board, which has strict guidelines on depictions of violence.
